The Californer/10324828

LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Bridge Publications, the publisher of the nonfiction works of international best-selling author L. Ron Hubbard, has been recognized as a finalist in the 2025 Manufacturing Leadership Awards for its outstanding achievement in operational excellence by the Manufacturing Leadership Council, a division of the National Association of Manufacturers.

The project started in 2024 when Bridge Publications embarked on a strategy to increase its color printing capacity by five times to meet the growing global demand for the works of L. Ron Hubbard. This project involved the installation of 10 new HP Indigo 7K presses in just three months, a remarkable achievement that has significantly enhanced Bridge's ability to produce high-quality printed materials at an unprecedented scale.

The HP Indigo 7K presses are state-of-the-art digital offset presses capable of printing 11,520 impressions per hour for 4-color jobs. These presses were integrated into Bridge's existing digital manufacturing infrastructure, enabling the publisher to handle larger print runs and meet tighter deadlines. The presses are now used for producing a wide range of materials, including books, course materials, reference texts and "The L. Ron Hubbard Series: The Complete Biographical Encyclopedia".

The project's benefits are far-reaching. By increasing production speed and maintaining color accuracy through advanced color management systems, Bridge reached record-breaking shipments of 250 pallets of materials sent in just six days across the globe. The new printing capabilities have allowed Bridge to fulfill the highest levels of demand from the over 10,000 Scientology organizations worldwide, ensuring that materials reach the end users rapidly.

"With our expanded capacity we are now able to meet the need for L. Ron Hubbard books around the globe at an even higher level of efficiency," says Ryan Price, Vice President of Manufacturing at Bridge Publications. "Moreover, our 10 new HP 7K presses allow us to produce books at the necessary speed to meet strict timelines while simultaneously maintaining the highest quality standards."
